30 May - Psalm 119:1-88

Jude Fri Dec 28, 2018 10:40 pm

My soul doth magnify my YAH, and my spirit hath rejoiced in EL my Saviour; For HE that is mighty hath done to me great things; and Holy is HIS Name. Now unto HIM who is ever present in my helpless estate; who is able to keep me from falling and to present me faultless before the presence of His Glory with exceeding joy, unto the King Eternal, Immortal, Invisible, the only wise EL our Saviour be honour and glory and majesty, dominion and power both now and for ever Halleluyah!

PSALM 119:1-88

1Blessed are the perfect in the way, Who walk in the Torah of יהוה!

2Blessed are those who observe His witnesses, Who seek Him with all the heart!

3Yea, they shall do no unrighteousness; They shall walk in His ways.

4You have commanded us To guard Your orders diligently.

5Oh, that my ways were established To guard Your laws!

6Then I would not be ashamed, When I look into all Your commands.

7I thank You with uprightness of heart, When I learn the right-rulings of Your righteousness.

8I guard Your laws; Oh, do not leave me entirely!

9How would a young man cleanse his path. To guard it according to Your word?

10I have sought You with all my heart; Let me not stray from Your commands!

11I have treasured up Your word in my heart, That I might not sin against You.

12Blessed are You, O יהוה! Teach me Your laws.

13With my lips I have recounted All the right-rulings of Your mouth.

14I have rejoiced in the way of Your witnesses, As over all riches.

15I meditate on Your orders, And regard Your ways.

16I delighta myself in Your laws; I do not forget Your word.

17Do good to Your servant, Let me live and I guard Your word.

18Open my eyes, that I might see Wonders from Your Torah.

19I am a sojourner in the earth; Do not hide Your commands from me.

20My being is crushed with longing For Your right-rulings at all times.

21You rebuked the proud, cursed ones, Who are straying from Your commands.

22Remove from me reproach and scorn, For I have observed Your witnesses.

23Though princes sat, speaking against me, Your servant meditates on Your laws.

24Your witnesses also are my delight, My counsellors.

25My being has been clinging to the dust; Revive me according to Your word.

26I have recounted my ways and You answered me; Teach me Your laws.

27Make me understand the way of Your orders; That I might meditate on Your wonders.

28My being has wept from grief; Strengthen me according to Your word.

29Remove from me the way of falsehood, And favour me with Your Torah.

30I have chosen the way of truth; Your right-rulings I have held level.

31I have clung to Your witnesses; O יהוה, do not put me to shame!

32I run the way of Your commands, For You enlarge my heart.

33Teach me, O יהוה, the way of Your laws, And I observe it to the end.

34Make me understand, that I might observe Your Torah, And guard it with all my heart.

35Make me walk in the path of Your commands, For I have delighted in it.

36Incline my heart to Your witnesses, And not to own gain.

37Turn away my eyes from looking at falsehood, And revive me in Your way.

38Establish Your word to Your servant, Which leads to the fear of You.

39Turn away my reproach which I dread, For Your right-rulings are good.

40See, I have longed for Your orders; Revive me in Your righteousness.

41And let Your kindnesses come to me, O יהוה; Your deliverance, according to Your word,

42So that I answer my reprover, For I have trusted in Your word.

43And do not take away from my mouth The word of truth entirely, For I have waited for Your right-rulings;

44That I might guard Your Torah continually, Forever and ever;

45That I might walk in a broad place, For I have sought Your orders;

46That I might speak of Your witnesses before sovereigns, And not be ashamed;

47That I might delight myself in Your commands, Which I have loved;

48That I might lift up my hands to Your commands, Which I have loved; While I meditate on Your laws.

49Remember the word to Your servant, On which You have caused me to wait.

50This is my comfort in my affliction, For Your word has given me life.

51The proud have utterly scorned me, I did not turn aside from Your Torah.

52I remembered Your right-rulings of old, O יהוה, And I comfort myself.

53Rage has seized me because of the wrong Who forsake Your Torah.

54Your laws have been my songs In the place of my sojournings.

55I have remembered Your Name in the night, O יהוה, And I guard Your Torah.

56This has become mine, Because I have observed Your orders.

57You are my portion, O יהוה; I have promised to guard Your words.

58I have sought Your face with all my heart; Show me favour according to Your word.

59I have thought upon my ways, And turned my feet to Your witnesses.

60I have hurried, and did not delay To guard Your commands.

61The cords of the wrong have surrounded me, Your Torah I have not forgotten.

62At midnight I rise to give thanks to You, For Your righteous right-rulings.

63I am a companion of all who fear You, And of those guarding Your orders.

64O יהוה, Your kindness has filled the earth; Teach me Your laws.

65You have done good to Your servant, O יהוה, According to Your word.

66Teach me good sense and knowledge, For I have trusted in Your commands.

67Before I was afflicted I myself was going astray, But now I have guarded Your word.

68You are good, and do good; Teach me Your laws.

69The proud have forged a lie against me, With all my heart I observe Your orders.

70Their heart has become like fat, Without feeling; I have delighted in Your Torah.

71It was good for me that I was afflicted, That I might learn Your laws.

72The Torah of Your mouth is better to me Than thousands of gold and silver pieces.

73Your hands have made me and formed me; Make me understand, that I might learn Your commands.

74Those who fear You see me and rejoice, For I have waited for Your Word.

75I know, O יהוה, That Your right-rulings are righteous, And in trustworthiness You have afflicted me.

76Please let Your kindness be for my comfort, According to Your word to Your servant.

77Let Your compassions come to me, That I might live, For Your Torah is my delight.

78Let the proud be put to shame, For with lies they perverted me; But I study Your orders.

79Let those who fear You turn to me, And those who know Your witnesses.

80Let my heart be perfect in Your laws, So that I am not put to shame.

81For Your deliverance my being has pined away, For I have waited for Your word.

82My eyes have pined away for Your word, Saying, “When would it comfort me?”

83For I have become like a wineskin in the smoke, Your laws I have not forgotten.

84How many are the days of Your servant? When do You execute right-ruling On those who persecute me?

85The proud have dug pits for me, Which is not according to Your Torah.

86All Your commands are trustworthy; They have persecuted me with lies; Help me!

87They almost made an end of me on earth, But I, I did not forsake Your orders.

88Revive me according to Your kindness, That I might guard the witness of Your mouth.
